And Rasmussen is considered more of a conservative-friendly pollster, I've always heard.
49% Say Bush Responsible for Provoking Iraq WarI think the next chapter in Bush's wag-the-dog is going to be gays? What do you think? We ought to have a bookie run the numbers - who's the next innocent target of Bush's attempt to distract attention from his plummeting poll numbers, nearly 1800 dead Americans in Iraq, and the fact that the Downing Street Memo proves he lied to Congress and the American people in order to trick us into going to war in Iraq?
44% Say Hussein
Survey of 1,000 Adults
June 20-21, 2005
June 23, 2005--Forty-nine percent (49%) of Americans say that President Bush is more responsible for starting the War with Iraq than Saddam Hussein. A Rasmussen Reports survey found that 44% take the opposite view and believe Hussein shoulders most of the responsibility.
In late 2002, months before the fighting began, most Americans thought that Hussein was the one provoking the War. Just one-in-four thought the President was doing the provoking at that time.
